As promised, here is a list of sites I found that either offer help in teaching memoir workshops or have workbooks to use in workshop. Please contribute links to your own workshops or resources you have or know of!
Here is a short pdf article on teaching workshops:
I’ve used this program before and it was very useful!

Another pdf with a course outline:

An article on teaching memoir writing to senior citizens:

Excellent resource (pdf) on teaching studio style memoir workshops
